The Triumph Tiger 800 comes external as well as internal changes. The tourer bike now comes with an improved 800 cc engine. The in-line three-cylinder motor still churns out 94 BHP along with 79 Nm of peak torque. That said, triumph has modified the gearbox so that it offers a shorter first gear. Along with this, the bike is now better in low-speed response, off-road traction and acceleration.

In terms of design, the Triumph Tiger 800 now comes with a restyled front end. The redesigned fascia gives the middleweight adventure-tourer motorcycle an aggressive stance. This feature is further enhanced by the new LED headlamps. Thanks to the modifications, the bike now looks a lot more muscular.

The 2018 iteration of the Triumph Tiger 800 comes with an all-new colour TFT instrument cluster. However, it only comes as standard on the middle and top-spec trims. The base XR variant still has to do with an LCD panel. The bike will be available in a total of five variants. These variants will have different styles distributed across a number of themes.
